    Unhappy Ear Ache

    right, i told the missus that i'm going out shooting over the weekend, which brought the obligatory "and what am i meant to do? i never see you anymore since you got that gun blah blah blah....."

    you get the idea right?

    does anyone else get this kind of crap from thier other half? or am i alone, stuck with a posessive nut-job for a bird?
    Cheers

    Oggy

    Nope, your all alone
    My missus positively pushes me out the door to go shooting and fishing
    I thought perhaps she was seeing someone behind my back but i checked when she was asleep the other night and the cobwebs are still there

    how do you deal with it? i just generally use the argument "i didnt £400 on a gun so i can look at it!!"

    Talking It is a bit like that joke

    Two golfers chatting and the first one says...

    "Whenever I plan to go and play golf all I get from my Mrs is grief"

    The second ones says

    "You should try what I do, set the alarm for half an hour before it is time to leave and when it goes off say to her....so is it the golf course or is it intercourse ?"

    She always says..."Take a jumper because it might be cold out there !!!"

    "Never fails and I have a single figure handicap !!!"
    Quis custodiet ipsos custodes ?

    As I've said before on here - my line is: 'It's a cold, hard, cruel world out there, so shut the door on the way out...'

    Not alone

    You are not alone mate.
    But I just cop a deaf `un and go anyway.
    I buy flowers or some goodies ,from the late night supermarket or garage on the way back.

    ps It helps to have your gear by the door or better in the car for quick getaway

    Tee hee.

    Substitute the word 'gun' or 'shooting' for 'anything I am not in control of or involved in (i.e. shopping)'

    And that, my friend, by and large, is wimmin.
